Question

Whenever I open vim I get this error:

stty: illegal option -- --save
usage: stty [-a|-e|-g] [-f file] [options]

Then, when I quit I see:

stty: illegal option -- 
usage: stty [-a|-e|-g] [-f file] [options]

Screenshot:

I’ve tried both iTerm and terminal. Also, this just randomly started happening it seems. I’m on VIM 7.3. Nothing appears to be wrong with vim, but I just get nasty output. Also, it’s nothing in my vimrc file. I removed the file to make sure and I still get the error.

Answer 1

stty has nothing to do with Vim. Check (or post) your .vimrc to see if it invokes, somehow, stty. Or check your *rc files, maybe.
